Get Ready to Rock as JAM Live Music Arcade is Coming to
PlayStation® Network and Xbox LIVE® Arcade May 16

Minneapolis, Minnesota – May 2, 2012 –
The kickoff date for your own music tour has just been announced!
Zivix LLC, a developer leveraging innovative technology through
peripherals, real musical instruments and entertainment software,
and in association with Reverb Publishing, announced today that its
upcoming music creation sandbox game,
JAM Live Music Arcade, is set to launch on both Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the
Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft
and PlayStation® Network the week of May 16th.

JAM Live Music Arcade was recently featured at SXSW in Austin and fresh from
the PAX East show in Boston, where would-be Jam Masters from around
the world got to remix some of their favorite hits on-the-fly. Be
sure to check out the launch trailer here:

JAM Live Music Arcade is a completely new approach to the music genre with a
real-time live music sandbox “JAM Mode” that allows the
player to immediately build and customize their very own tunes, as
well as a bonus “Arcade Challenge Mode” that plays
similar to traditional music games. Starting with any one of the
30+ licensed songs featured in the game (including hits from Modest
Mouse, Fallout Boy, Fatboy Slim, Owl City, Rise Against, Atmosphere
and more), players jam with and remix all aspects of the song
– guitar, bass, drums, synth and vocals – to experiment
with the song and re-create it to their own personality. All of
this is done with any one of the numerous compatible guitar gaming
peripherals – the entire band is in your hands! Accessible
and easy to get started, yet deep and almost endless to master,
everyone can touch real music across a broad range of sonic tastes.
JAM Live Music Arcade offers an immersive level of musical interaction
that’s inspiring, powerful and contagious.

JAM Live Music Arcade joins Reverb Publishing’s growing roster of titles,
which includes the massively successful
Dungeon Defenders, as well as the upcoming
Sanctum 2,
Primal Carnage,
Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad,
Black Knight Sword and much more. For more information
